Arabinoxylan (AX) degrades to (arabino)xylooligosaccharides [(A)XOS] through enzymatic hydrolysis. AX and (A) XOS are considered as dietary fibers and are associated with many health benefits, including immunomodulatory activity. (A)XOS includes both xylooligosaccharides (XOS) and arabino xylooligosaccharides (AXOS). The current research aims to develop a process for production of xylan fibers,

Fiji has been plagued with issues hindering its economic development. Having experienced 4 coup d’états in the last 40 years owing to tension between the countries’ two majority ethnic groups, Fiji has developed a reputation for political instability. Lacklustre growth, weak structural transformation, and limited economic diversification have led to increased poverty levels. With the Covid-19 pand
Om den tilltalade inte har förstått innebörden av sin gärning och inte har kunnat anpassa sitt handlande därefter, anses personen vara otillräknelig. I de flesta andra rättsordningar innebär det att den tilltalade inte kan dömas för brott, men svensk rätt saknar ett krav på tillräknelighet sedan brottsbalken trädde i kraft 1965. Sverige intar en särställning genom att samtliga kan bli föremål för If the defendant has not understood the meaning of their act and has not been able to adapt their actions accordingly, the person is deemed legally non-imputable. In most other legal systems, this means that the defendant cannot be liable, but since the Criminal Code entered into force 1965, Swedish law lacks a demand for imputability. Sweden has a peculiar regulation on the matters and everyone c
This thesis is placed in the context of talent management and revolves around the phenomena of talent and talent wars. The two phenomena have received increased attention in the talent management discourse during the last decades as the international competitiveness for talents among organizations has become amplified. The purpose of this thesis has been to explore, analyze and compare different p
The study aimed to research some social workers in the department of children and families services' view of the case “Lilla hjärtat” and the dilemmas of the case. This case, a 4-year old girl who died in the care of her parents, is well known in Sweden through the media, and the case has led to a public inquiry. The study was a case study based on seven semi-structured qualitative interviews
As social desirability has not received enough focus when estimating the predictive power of personality in explaining well-being variance, recent accounts of the relationship between ratings of personality and well-being might be overestimated. The current study investigated the influence of social desirability, operationalized as the evaluative factor of personality (i.e., the tendency to react
To roll its dung-ball along straight paths across the African Savanna, the ball-rolling dung-beetle Kheper lamarcki (Mac Leay, 1821) utilizes a broad repertoire of celestial compass cues. These include the position of the sun and the polarization pattern that forms around it. It is hypothesized that a celestial snapshot of these cues needs to be stored in order to support orientation. However, it
During the last decades the Swedish Child and Adolescent Psychiatric Services (CAP) has undergone major organizational changes. According to social research the changes are mainly due to new public management reforms. The aim of this study was to examine how social workers, i.e. psychiatry counsellors, experienced and coped with their working conditions within CAP. The method chosen for this study
China’s approach and response to democratization in Hong Kong have since the city’s handover back in 1997 been somewhat of a rollercoaster-esque experience. The path towards democracy has for the people of Hong Kong remained an ongoing struggle for nearly 30 years, with recent developments arguably putting an end towards any hope of future realization. This study seeks to investigate and assess Be
The separator is a machine with many applications, commonly used to separate liquids or solids into components with different density. Each application demands its own unique set of process parameters to achieve optimal results. Often the procedure of finding the best process parameters is conducted empirically, which can be very time consuming. This thesis aims to address this problem by providin
The aim of realistic graphics is the creation of images that provide the same visual responses that a viewer would experience in a real world scene. There are different rendering techniques that produce high dynamic range images that capture the full intensity range of a scene. These images cannot be reproduced on a standard display due to limitations in device hardware. Therefore, a high dynamic
A theoretical study is presented, in which the nonlinear response of a bi-ased Quantum Cascade Laser (QCL) is calculated. The calculations are based on the nonequilibrium Green’s function formalism. Assuming a periodic electromagnetic field in the calculations, this formalism provides not only the stationary behavior Green’s functions, but also the part of the response that varies in time according
During 2007, a legal reform in Sweden took place, this change led to complications in interpreting the needs of individuals and the application of the laws by the governing social authorities. The aim of the thesis is to explore the underlying norms that influence social workers interpretation of young offenders needs, aged 15 to 17 years, and if the interpretations are consistent.

Background: The Eye Clinic at Södersjukhuset used to be a healthcare facility with hospitalized patients, who stayed overnight. But with the construction of S:t Eriks eye hospital the healthcare facility was turned into a daytime clinic. The clinic stayed in the premises, which was oversized and not suited for clinical work. Over time the amount of patients and personnel increased until all rooms
Sustainable development is now a part of environmental, social, and economic agendas all over the world. Sustainability projects are cropping up in urban areas, including projects in the housing sector aimed at sustainable regeneration. Simultaneously, it is now recognized that public participation is an essential character of implementing change. And within sustainability participation, it is con
Flera parallella ryggar korsar sluttningen i de höga bergen vid Handcar Peak i British Columbia, Kanada. Dessa ryggar är hak med brant lutning in mot sluttningen. En undersökning av ett hak genomfördes. Huvudsyftet med undersökningen var att undersöka sedimenten i svackan mellan haket och sluttningen och presentera en möjlig förklaring till dess uppkomst. Därför grävdes en skärning i svackan, upp Several parallel linear ridges run perpendicular to the slope direction in the high-altitude mountain of Handcar Peak, British Columbia, Canada. The ridges have scarps facing the hillside. An investigation of one of the anti-slope scarps was made. The main purpose was to investigate the sediments in the depression inside the scarp, and to find a possible cause for these features. Therefore a tren
A reliable electricity sector is imperative for the development and competitiveness of Costa Rica. During the last decade, electricity demand has been growing faster than the expansion of the power network, and the demand side efforts have been almost inexistent. Therefore, since 2007 the electricity sector of Costa Rica is in a vulnerable position. In fact, for 2014 energy shortages have been ant
Human trafficking is a transnational phenomenon and it has been one of the most hotly debated issues in the development agenda for the last decade. This thesis focuses the attention on the phenomenon of women trafficking for the purpose of sexual exploitation and takes as a case study the Republic of Albania. Albania has been, especially during the 90s, widely touched by the phenomenon, and since
The objective of this paper is to examine the possibility of predicting the recovery of a distressed firm into a turnaround based on its current financial situation and a set of variables that are considered of having a significant impact on the turnaround probability. To assess this problem 150 firms are used that were distressed at some point during the period 1991 to 2001. These firms were all
